So is this the year where we can't afford to !@#$ the bed in the Target Center or would we still be fine and make the tourny.

Win 5 or 6 of the last 6 and I think we would be in regardless. Any less though and we at least need to win the 1st round series.

DISCLAIMER: No math was done to come to this conclusion

They're the No. 5 team in the PWR. A split would be good things for us.

I would be happy with a split, but after watching them play Omaha there is no reason we can't go in there and sweep them. Our defense isn't great but the lack of defense i watched last weekend was incredible.

100% agree. When we play a full 60, we are as good as anyone and can absolutely sweep Western.

I'm going with Jim Dahl's math: We need to win at least 3 games and not completely lay an egg in the NCHC playoffs. (I don't believe anything below PWR13 is safe this season.)

As far as this weekend, a split is the mandatory minimum.
